Eclipse and Pydev - how to edit syntax coloring choices

I've really looked everywhere for a lead on this.

I'm using Eclipse (Kepler) and Pydev 4.0.0.

The default syntax coloring for Pydev is driving me crazy. But what's driving me more crazy is that I cannot find an obvious source that explains how to adjust syntax coloring.

In specific, what I want to do is simply adjust the color used for # comments. Right now it's a very pale gray on white, and almost invisible to me.

It's easy to see how you can monkey with colors for Java editors, but for editing Python, it just seems that I'm stuck with the hardcoded syntax color choices.

What am I missing?

Coloring in eclipse is tricky but it can be done: windows -> preferences -> pydev -> editor ...scroll down in inset box to "comments"

Good luck!
